I am a female and I honestly don't know the difference in oil filters. Which brand would give my car the best performance?

With Moblil 1 I like the K&Ns (i change every 3 mos or about 5K miles) but if you change your oil every 3K miles, a good ol FL1A is all you need.

Suggested Repair
Use a quality Wix or Motorcraft oil filter. For about 3,000-mile oil changes, a Motorcraft FL1A was said to be sufficient; with Mobil 1 and changes around every 5,000 miles or 3 months, a K&N filter was preferred. Confirm the filter fits the specific Ford engine.
Conversation Summary
A Ford owner asked which oil filter brand would give the best performance. Experts recommended Wix and Motorcraft filters. Another reply preferred K&N with Mobil 1 when oil is changed about every 5,000 miles or 3 months, and said a Motorcraft FL1A is adequate for 3,000-mile changes.
